[PATCH v12 19/25] arm,x86,fs/resctrl: Enumerate AET on every resctrl mount

From: Tony Luck

Date: Wed Sep 16 2026 - 19:25:05 EST


Call resctrl_arch_pre_mount() for every mount protected by
resctrl_mount_lock. Add matching resctrl_arch_unmount() path for
architecture code to clean up on mount failure or unmount.

Remove intel_aet_exit() after moving all the cleanup code into
intel_aet_unmount().

v12:
Rest of old patch 17 merged into patch 18 so the umount
code path is complete.
Fix rdt_get_tree() return value when kernfs_get_tree() fails.
Move resctrl_arch_unmount() after cpus_read_unlock() in out: error path
Update resctrl_arch_pre_mount() header comment to say it is now
called for each mount, not just the first.
Update comment for resctrl_mounted to say that both resctrl_mount_lock
and rdtgroup_mutex must be help to change state.
